Hi all,
I'm new here and have a dilemma. I am trying to replace the valve stems in my 2 handled tub shower. There is a pipe (or housing) that extends around the valve stem from the wall. I have a socket (21/32 - 27/32). The 21/32 end fits down the pipe but not over the nut and the 27/32 end won't fit down the pipe at all. I was really hoping I would not have to remove the tile but it seems like this pipe is well seated behind it somehow. Any thoughts on the best way to remedy this? There is a pic attatched. Please help!
Thanks!
Luke
